"You can't call it an adventure unless it's tinged with danger. The greatest danger in life, though, is not taking the adventure at all. To have the objective of a life of ease is death. I think we've all got to go after our own Everest." Brian Blessed

I can't believe anyone would want to climb it knowing how many people have died and never been recovered. It's just insane to me.

a d more have just recently died as they got over crowding climbing the mountain. people where dead on the ground while the others where in the death zone. running out of oxygen and not being properly trained will get you killed. Where's the glory in that.

damnpaterfamilias, I agree with your theory, but don't you think life in its self is adventurous, and dangerous enough without taking enormous risks with your life?? Plus the pain that it would cause loved ones if the person died doing it! If there was any possibility that something could kill me, and the exercise had already lost over 300 humans by now. I say your foolish to even put that much danger on yourself. That's not and adventure, that's tempting fate.

Is only special when someone has climbed a mountain for the first time. Now it has no value, as so many do it. There is no honor when you let others die in front of you and all you care for is reaching that peak. There is no glory when hundreds of tons of trash is left behind, polluting what was once a magnificent mountain. Sad reality of selfish humans.

Not on my bucket list - I’m afraid of heights! I’ve been to the top of the Smoky Mountains in Gatlinburg, Tennessee by sky lift for dinner at the restaurant - when I was 10.

Dianna Bella74, If we were to die doing something we loved doing why would you call it, in your words, "foolish & put that much danger" on ourselves. Perhaps you would like to live that type of timid lifestyle & pass on doing nothing, but personally, if we died doing what we loved, at least we went happy. We tempt fate simply by existing, might as well be a little adventurous & experience & learn.

The thought of climbing such a high mountain is scary. I hope to see it someday but I'm definitely not climbing.
